Georgetown seemed like they were confused a few years ago, first moving to D-3, then suddenly changing direction toward D-2, and getting invited to the GMAC.I think somewhere in there, there was a change of administration or AD perhaps. They applied to D-2 in 2012, and got rejected, and sought an explanation why, and the D-2 committee presumably told them what their stumbling block was.Somehow, due to this internal shake-up, they decided they didn't have their shit together in time to do a bona fide re-application for 2013.

The article states that both Georgetown and Cumberland will apply for D-2 membership in Summer 2014.

I was a bit surprised that only 2 of 5 applicants to D-2 were approved this summer. Maybe the committee was afriad that if they didn't have some more applicants for 2014, they couldn't justify a 3-day convention / party to review applications in 2014...

They've since rejected AUM for some shady finance thing or something so Spring Hill was the only school that got in.

Yeah we never talked about that one here but the Senior Reports has a pretty good write up about how the D2 committee s a joke...

"As for Mississippi College, we believed that MC was more prepared than any other school in this year's applicant pool, but that there were misunderstandings created by the way things like graduation rates are calculated in D3 as opposed to D2," [Gulf South Conference Commissioner Nate] Salant continued. "Again, a lot came down to communication issues and interpretations of data and language. Once those were clarified, the Membership Committee had a much clearer picture of what MC brings to the D2 table, and it reversed its July decision."
